"What you do speaks so loud, I cannot hear what you say."
--- Ralph Waldo Emerson
His therapist told me yesterday that he told her he loves me and she must believe what he says. When I was venting to her, she kept thinking these were incidents that happened after I gave him his three year ultimatum. I had to keep pointing out to her that he started acting this way when his folks started to present a problem and it kept getting worse and worse from there.
So he can give me his little crumbs - like he did today by deigning to listen to me when I was talking to him about Pluto being downgraded from a planet to a dwarf planet - all they do is temporarily lift the pressure.
